Local Mission Partners
All of our local mission partners have gone through a thorough application and vetting process. Each was selected based on their proven effectiveness in serving the communities around New Hope Church.
If you’re interested in connecting with one of these incredible organizations, contact Rev. Alan Howe at (813) 689-4161 (office) or (315) 415-3567 (mobile), or email him—unless otherwise noted below.
Emergency Care Help Organization (ECHO)
ECHO helps bridge the gap between crisis and self-sufficiency. They provide food, clothing, and support to thousands of individuals and families in need each year. In addition to basic resources, they offer classes in employment, education, budgeting, and more.
ECHO is always in need of donations and has many opportunities for volunteers.
